So I bought my wrr brand new last weekend and I took it out to the track last yesterday just for fun and felt that the stock suspension was a little mushy. Seemed to have alot of rebound. Does anyone else have this problem and if so is there a way too stiffen the suspension? I'm a noob when it comes to this kind of thing so I'd like some help.

On a track (motocross track, you mean?), a dual-purpose bike will feel soft.
No surprise there.
Actually, the stock springs aren't as soft as most dual-purpose bikes feel.

The bike really needs a revalve (and springs if you weigh enough) to work as well as it could.
For a free-bee, set the rear sag to 3.5" and adjust the damping clickers to suit.
The damping clickers are shown in your Owner's Manual.
It ain't gonna' feel like a YZ for free, though.

I dont test my suspension well, but rather trail ride most.
I seem to like it soft...kinda wussy, but that's me.
I try some lil jumps, and the softness shows.
I set my rear compression at its softest setting and the forks in between.
The jumps seem to define how stiff I should set it, so far...maybe I'll get better at pushing it.
Trail riding aggressively seems ok, but like I said, I can only test so far.
If it can get better, I'm probably all for that.
For me it aint broken yet....'cept for that damn seal.
